Working over Christmas?

AbbeySider · December 23, 2010, 12:19:29 PM

Im coming into work for a few hours tomorrow and am off until 7th.
I dont really mind coming in a few hours on Christmas eve as we are let go home early.

In a previous job I had in college I worked Christmas day, 3 years in a row. Although I got well paid for it, it wasnt really worth it

Anyone else working tomorrow or over the Christmas?

Snowing heavily again now in Balbriggan - packing it in or I'll never get home.

Happy Christmas one and all, and a Better New Year.

Working tomorrow all day. Off Saturday and Sunday then back to a normal week on monday.
Not much of a break but just glad I've got the important days off.
Have no travelling to do so doesn't affect me as much as others. Still kinda wish I had the whole holidays off but unfortunately hospitals don't shut for them.

Off until January 10th. Which is nice.

actually working for a while on christmas eve is nice as long as you can knock off early enough to have an pint or two.
Merry Christmas to you all.

Finished today until the 4th. I've fixed holidays throughout the year so I take what I'm given.

By the way fixed holidays are a load of ballix
